The sentence in question: 赤と白のしまのセーターにジーンズをはいた女の子ですね。

1) Is it necessary to write い-adjective + の here, or would 赤くて白い work as well?
Is there a difference in meaning?

2) why is there this に? I can’t make any sense of it. To me the sentence says:
„It is a girl wearing jeans and a sweatshirt in red and white stripes.” What
function does に have in this context? Oo

Ｑ１）

No it is not necessary but still acceptable, but in that case the の in 赤と白
**の** [縞]{しま} is needed to be dropped as well.

Acceptable forms:

  * 赤と白の縞
  * 赤いと白い縞
  * 赤と白縞

_Although it maybe valid in some cases, 白い **の** 縞 is just **very** weird. I
would suggest **NOT** to say it that way._

* * *

Ｑ２）

It can also mean "with".
